Australia Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHIJKLMNO| I SEE a Land of desperate droughts and floods | A |
| I see a land where Need keeps spreading round | B |
| And all but giants perish in the stress | C |
| I see a Land where more and more and more | D |
| The demons Earth and Wealth grow bloat and strong | E |
| I see a Land that lies a helpless prey | F |
| To wealthy cliques and gamblers and their slaves | G |
| The huckster politicians a poor Land | H |
| That less and less can make her heart wish law | I |
| Yea but I see a Land where some few brave | J |
| Raise clear eyes to the struggle that must come | K |
| Reaching firm hands to draw the doubters in | L |
| Preaching the gospel 'Drill and drill and drill ' | M |
| Yea but I see a Land where best of all | N |
| The hope of Victory burns strong and bright | O |
